EB How to Start?

[tarpan]

I had the same problem, but when i start RomeTW.exe it's the normal version not the modded version of the game

All I can find is the EB setup. Now when I click on Icon. Wordpad opens. This gets worst.

I'm going to uninstall again. Then download EB 08 again. This is one Major pain in thr butt!!!!

Did you set the EB extractor destination to your "...\Rome - Total War\" folder? The default isn't always the correct location depending on when you got your version of RTW.

Common default locations:
C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\
C:\Program Files\SEGA\Rome - Total War\
C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\

Find where you have the RomeTW.exe, point the EB extractor at that and you shouldn't have to do anything more, just click on the EB desktop shortcut.

When I click on properties it says start in Program files\Activation\Rome Total War. But when I click on Icon. It still can not find Rome.exe.

Try copying your normal RTW desktop shortcut and at the very end after the quotes add "-mod:eb -nm -show_err" so the target looks like this:

"C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe" -mod:eb -nm -show_err

(may not be "The Creative Assembly")

If that doesn't work, it isn't the shortcut that is screwed up, try reinstalling EB and make sure it is definately in the right folder.

I'll try that. I uninstalled again. I put it in the Activision file. I get same thing. Windows can not find RomeTW.exe.
